I thought so, thank you for your answer @phillofoc. I should mention, that I didn't notice any change in power consumption. It can be as little as 100-200mW between 6205 and 7260, but I cannot measure it properly because usage varies. My system with Crucial MX100 256GB SSD and i5-3320M idles at ~5,5W without ASPM optimizations at 30% screen brightness either with 6205 or 7260. Another thing I noticed: turning wireless off by switch under the screen makes light go out instead of turning orange as it did with 6205. Strange, but I think I can live with that

I suppose that few people tried Intel 7260 AC in their 2570p. Did anyone had been able to activate Bluetooth? I have successfully swapped and launched 7260 AC with my previous 6205 N. It was taken from Gigabyte GA-H97N-WIFI mITX deskop motherboard which was marketted as having WiFi-AC/Bluetooth combo, but after unplugging internal BT card, I lost BT functionality. There is not a single Bluetooth device showing in device manager in Windows 8.1. Is this normal? I've read somewhere, that Bluetooth needs USB2.0 wiring in PCI-E slot. Is that correct? Is this a reason for Bluetooth part not working in 7260-AC?
